Silver alert issued for missing Conn. man

THOMPSON — State Police have issued a Silver Alert for a missing 30-year-old man from Thompson who may be in the Oxford area.

Charles "Chuck" Sarette was last seen by his wife in Oxford about 6 p.m. Thursday. He was driving a 2013 Black Chrysler 200 with Connecticut license plate 970 YYZ.

Mr. Sarette was wearing blue jeans, black sneakers, a white T-shirt and a gray zip-front hooded sweatshirt. He has blue eyes and dark hair, although his head is shaved, and he sports a goatee. His wife said he also has a sleeve-style tattoo on his right arm.

He is about 200 pounds and 5-feet-10-inches tall.

Kate Slingo-Sarette said her husband was depressed when she saw him and that she is concerned because of statements he made. The couple has an 8-year-old daughter.

Ms. Slingo-Sarette said her husband could be on roads in Connecticut or Massachusetts and could have headed to Maine, though friends he has there have not heard from him since Tuesday.

"He could be parked somewhere," she said.

Anyone who sees Mr. Sarette or his vehicle is asked to call Plainfield, Conn., police at (860) 564-0804.
